1/18 Minsi III Hellcat repaint

Post by B-29 » Mon Mar 18, 2013 9:52 pm

Just finished a repaint of David McCampbell's Minsi III Hellcat. Big thanks to Jackson for the decals! Sorry for the reflections in the photos, if requested I can put up some more pictures. I also added the rear window behind the cockpit.

That's awesome!
Great work B-29, all you need now is to find some rockets for it!

Nice job, B-29. 8) Did you also do some staining? I can't tell by the pictures.

Thanks for the compiments everyone. Yes, I did add exhaust staining but other than that it is clean. From what I've been able to find, Minsi III was typically very clean. I will see if I can get better pictures to show the exhaust better
